jabref: Jabre-4.x does not exit cleanly
The GUI disappears after running File/Quit from the menu, but Jabref does not return to console. Need to press Ctrl+C several times.
Started from commandline with java -jar jabref.jar

I fixed the issue by unmarking the checkbox related to collecting and sharing telemetry data, in the General tab of the Preferences window. I saw this issue was mentioned in a few pull requests related to usage statistics, decided to try it and it worked.
@michaellass thanks to a quick fix by @125m125 the issue should be now resolved in the latest development version
I have already updated to a more recent version and I retried several times. I have to agree, that it is not so easy to reproduce anymore. I will have to investigate a bit more what causes it. Sometimes it exits in 3 seconds (which is quite slow for an simple GUI on a i7 cpu), some times it takes longer. I think the best is we close the ticket and I open a new ticket, when I can provide useful details.
